Basic Approaches

The proposed paper provides a review of recommendations, methodic instructions and software for evaluation of exposure doses to population domiciling radioactive contaminated territories. There is a review of dose calculation methods which are most common in neighbouring countries and beyond. The paper presents basic approaches, factors required for dose assessment with review of main pathways for artificial radionuclides intake. It addresses the need to develop methodic instructions and software for the cases of people living at Semipalatinsk test site area.

Semipalatinsk Test Site

The ecological situation in the former Semipalatinsk test site is characterized by a combination of both radiative and "nonradiative" factors. There were investigated near-portal areas of the tunnels with water seepage at "Degelen" site. All the tunnel waters are characterized by higher concentrations of uranium, beryllium, and molybdenum. The watercourse of the tunnel # 504 is unique for its elemental composition, in particular, the content of rare earth elements, whose concentration in the water is in the range n*10-5 – n*10-7 %. Of all the rare earth elements in the samples were found 13, the concentrations of aluminum, manganese, zinc are comparable to the concentrations of macro-components. Concentration of 238U in the studied waters lie in the range of n*10-4 – n*10-6 %, which suggests the influence of uranium, not only as a toxic element, but its significance as the radiation factor.
